NEEDLE EYE


An optimum level of corrosion resistance exists for each individual fishing application.

You can depend on VMC coatings to preserve the unique sharpness, strength, shape and finish of our hooks for as long as you need them to last.

The wide range of VMC coastings offers an efficient solution adapted to every fishing condition.

Permasteel

The anti-corrosion coating by excellence, exclusive to VMC. The Permasteel secret formula forms a 100% protective shield for even the most vulnerable areas of the hook, whilst maintaining ultimate point sharpness.

Tests have proven that VMC Permasteel prevents signs of corrosion in saltwater for over 1000 hours.

Tin - Tin Red - Tin Blue - Onyx Black

VMC Tin Coatings achieve a perfect balance between coating thickness and point sharpness, to ensure optimum hook performance and resistance to corrosion.

VMC Tin Red and Tin Blue Hooks offer all the advantages of the VMC Tin plating, with a bright coloured varnish for extra visual effect.

Highly recommended for all saltwater fishing applications, particularly those involving intense friction e.g. trolling, or when in direct contact with stainless steel. VMC Tin coatings conserve their full anti-corrosion properties in these situations.

Blue - Black - Red - Nickel Blue - Black Nickel

These coloured hooks receive a thin layer of varnish that will cover the hook without affecting the sharpness of its point. The varnish creates a shield on High Carbon or Vanadium steel by covering the entire hook surface. To ensure that the point keeps 100% of its sharpness, VMC has developed its unique varnish specification to ensure the greatest overall coverage with the thinnest coating.

Bronze - Nickel - Gold

This corrosion scale is founded on tests carried out in the most aggressive saltwater environment possible.

When fishing in Freshwater, these VMC coatings will preserve hook sharpness, strength and appearance to the highest possible level.

Stainless Steel

Reserved for specialized professional and sport hook series, VMC Stainless Steel hooks are an excellent choice for deep sea fishing, salmon and big game.

roundtreble hooks

hook sizes with equal wire thickness

VMC Expert Tip

What is the meaning of 1x strong, 2x strong etc.?

This is an indication of wire thickness. The higher the «x» number, the stronger the wire.

As a general rule, the «x» number denotes the shift in sizes in relation to the wire thickness of an equivalent standard hook.

Therefore, a 1x strong treble has the same wire thickness as its standard equivalent one size bigger and a 2x strong treble has the same wire thickness as its standard equivalent two sizes bigger etc. The other hook dimensions are unchanged.

This table illustrates the shift in sizes for VMC standard round treble 9649 compared to 1x strong (9650) and 2x strong (9655) equivalents.

VMC Expert Tip

Do I need a Round or an O’Shaugnessy shape?

The round bend has a slightly wider gap than the O’Shaugnessy and results in a better and easier setting of the hook, but will open more easily.

Most freshwater applications will use the round bend.

For saltwater or freshwater applications aimed at heavy and powerful fi sh, think O’Shaugnessy, for greater resistance to opening.

VMC Expert Tip

When should I use a short-shank treble?

We recommend that you use a short shank treble any time you use a small size lure body with a reduced space between the two hooks. The short shank will prevent the two hooks from tangling.

Barbarian Shape

The unique design of the technical locking curve allows a maximum transfer of energy towards the point while setting the hook. This results in a faster and more effortless penetration of the point and up to 25% improved hooking rate.

The hook’s V shape locks the fish close to the shank, applying less pressure on the point. This prevents big fish from opening the hook and self-releasing.

Tests have proven that the unique geometry of the VMC Barbarian shape increases a hook’s resistance to opening.

VMC Expert Tip

What is the use of barbless hooks?

VMC barbless hooks comply with regulations enforced in certain areas of the world which insist on the use of barbless hooks only. Moreover, VMC barbless hooks allow faster and easier penetration of the hook point and are easily removed, ensuring an improved and safer catch and release.

8700S DYNACUT SOUTHERN TUNA stainless steel, eyed, forged, inward point

Big Game STAINLESS STEEL Dynacut Series

The stainless steel Dynacut Big Game series feature the fi rst ready-to-fi sh, ultra sharp big game point on the market. With four ultra-sharp cutting edges and four perfectly symmetrical glassy faces, the VMC Dynacut point does not require any additional sharpening. The geometry of the Dynacut point allows the hook to easily penetrate the hardest part of the jaw of game fi sh, instantly providing a perfect setting of the hook for a safe and clean fi ght.

Designed not only to be ultra sharp, the Dynacut Big game point was shaped to last and resists enormous pressure applied onto it during the setting of the hook.

5789

9789 This very heavy duty circle hook has been designed to meet increasing tournament regulations in areas of the world where circle hooks are required to be fl at (non-reversed). In order to obtain the maximum level of resistance on each hook, VMC uses the fi nest quality of high carbon steel and fully forges the hook from the eye to the middle of the point. This forging allows ref 9789 to use lighter, thinner wire than other hooks on the market and still obtain a better resistance to opening. Being thinner, the penetration is signifi cantly improved. The forged point will resist outrageous amounts of pressure without bending. Fishing with braided line, multi-speed reels and heavy rods is not an issue anymore!
